The Icon Game: Responding to Literature with Depth and Complexity

JTE-31–by Karren Timmermans & Paula Wilkes—- One of J Taylor’s most highly anticipated products is now available! Engage your students in high-level discussions related to literature they are reading. Use the game to generate individual response, as a tool with the entire class, at a literary station, or as an assessment tool. There are so many possibilities – several others are mentioned in the “instruction card” that comes with each game. The game contains 88 question cards, 11 for each element of Depth & Complexity. In addition, two “icon spinners” are in each package. Spin the spinner to determine which pile of cards to draw from. Your students will love using the Icon Game as they develop better communication, comprehension, and high-level thinking skills.
